12 - [Video] / Action for Azalea

[show_my_cannons]

[There is an Onix on your screen. An Onix... lounging near the Azalea Pokemon Center in the sun. She's curled up, though, allowing for people to pass by.]

[And turning herself into one seriously epic climbing gym for two little pokemon. One is a fairly unremarkable Squirtle, who has climbed on top of her crest and is apparently pretending to be a flag. The other is a Growlithe.]

[A Growlithe with very stubby little legs and slightly pointed features. A corgi-lithe. She is running up and down the Onix's boulders, barking like the puppy she is, and occasionally rolling off one side of the rocks. This is the best fun ever!]

[There's a boot toe visible in one corner of the screen. Ironhide apparently set the 'gear down and forgot about it while watching this spectacle. The Growlithe, however, has not been so forgetful. She bounds over, and starts licking the camera before the feed cuts as Ironhide's hand comes into frame, and lifting her out of view.]

... Ah, it hatched...

[There's some happy barking before Ironhide gets the 'gear flipped around to see it better.]

Yeah. And Napalm claimed it.

[video]

[biteisbigger.livejournal.com]

She... looks like she's having fun.

[video]

[show_my_cannons]

Huh.

[He looks back over to the pokemon pile.]

Yeah. Guess it does look that way.

[video]

[biteisbigger.livejournal.com]

... Are you happy, too...?

[video]

[show_my_cannons]

[NOT REALLY --]

Everything is fine.

... [ a bit of a puzzled look. How is that a yes or no, Ironhide-- ]

[Having just arrived to Azalea, Lion was going around, getting to know the place. That was until the Epic Climbing Gym Onix appeared on sight. It was... well, quite the adorable sight.

Oh, that trainer Lion had seen before.]

That child seems to be having fun.

[Action]

[show_my_cannons]

[He glances over at the newcomer, and nods slightly. The little Growlithe wiggles around until he puts her down, and she runs right back over to play.]

Good workout for them.

[Action]

[isthedeadcat]

That's true... Mine have been having a little more trouble finding a space on land to work out when we are in a city.

[Action]

[show_my_cannons]

You ever try a park?

[Action]

[isthedeadcat]

Yes, they still take quite a bit of space. [A chuckle.] And large pokémon can be really wild when playing.

[Action]

[show_my_cannons]

[He grunts, and folds his arms.]

Some of them. Others... hmn.

[He nods to the Onix, who is looking perfectly content just to lie there while the little ones climb all over her.]

[Action]

[isthedeadcat]

[Lion then looks at the Onix and smiles a little because, sob, that's kinda adorable.] Then again, everyone has fun in different ways, don't they...?

[Action]

[show_my_cannons]

[Napalm is such a mom.]

Yeah. Someone should.

[Video] LATE LATE LATE

<sub>[... You know, Heather doesn't even like dogs. Like... at all.]

[But that was really friggin' cute, okay.]</sub>

... Awh.

_{[It's like somebody took a Growlithe and sawed its legs off! ... And it's kind of the shape of a skateboard!]}

[Video] S'OKAY

[show_my_cannons]

[The power of the Corgi-lithe compels even the most dog-hating among us all.]

[Ironhide appears on screen, holding the wiggling puppy literally in one hand.]

What?

[Video]

[foolishwren]

Your puppy.

It's adorable.

And that means a lot, coming from me.

I don't even like puppies.

[Video]

[show_my_cannons]

This?

[He holds the Growlithe up. She just sort of dangles in his hand with a doggy ":3" face.]

[Video]

[foolishwren]

Yeah, that is what we colloquially refer to as a 'puppy'.

Why, don't you think it's cute?

_{[... Well, Heather, considering he is a giant WAR MACHINE ...]}

[Video]

[show_my_cannons]

There was a Chihuahua... a rodent. It leaked lubricants all over my foot.

[The Growlithe just starts wiggling her legs, like she's running on air.]

So, no.

[Video]

[foolishwren]

_{[Is Heather going to start snickering at the mental image? Yes. Is she immature for this? Absolutely.]}

Well, it is cute.

Soooo...

What's its name?

[Video]

[show_my_cannons]

[Ironhide looks at the Growlithe.]

[The Growlithe looks back.]

[Their faces are both ":|" and "83" respectively.]

...

Dog.
